Well, as a guy who knows foot pain, I find three things work
1) R-I-C-E (Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation)
2) The classic Aleve
3) Drinking in high quantities
Any of those should work

I tried option 3 last night. Unfotunately I think in my ignorance of the pain I may have overtaxed the foot and agravated the problem.

You're normal!
I'm afraid your foot's going to hurt for a while. You'll probably need to spend some time stretching muscles and tendons that have shrunk into place, and building up strength.
